Horror Spoof

       Good day to you my fellow bloggers, Sophie the First is back with my final video filming project. This was a chase scene and we got to pick our groups, which let me tell you was a hard job. I was torn between two different groups but eventually settled with Mary (My actress mentioned before) and a new girl named Megan. We brainstormed for a whole hour and many ideas went back and forth, all relating to horror films, or something of the sort. I suggested a video with a clown in it because right now clowns are plaguing America and I thought it'd be funny be after so debate we decided against it. Mary suggested the horror movie spoof. I was wary of first, only because I didn't see her vision but after some explaining the video was appealing. The nest day, we filmed and didn't finish so filming continued onto Monday.
        Editing is still a difficult and long process. It takes me a while to remember how to import clips from the -Pad we used and then you have to put the clips in the hour two folder which took a while because I couldn't figure out how to export a big group of clips at one time so it took forever dragging each clip one at a time and I had 45 clips!
      Once everything was in Adobe Premiere it wasn't that hard, only the Wi-Fi decided to be difficult so day three nothing got done except for importing and exporting clips. Wednesday I walked into the e-COMM classroom before school believing today was going to be a great day with editing. But as I tried to connect to the server and Wi-Fi it didn't work. the whole 30 minutes that I gave myself to get at least half way done with editing, that didn't happen. Thursday I spent all class time working on my editing as well as watching my classmates and half listening to critiques. I finished right as the rang, but at least I finished it. I think my class did very well with videos and I think my was good as well.
     In our groups we had to edit the video separately so I think my version was pretty good, there are some jump cuts, crosses of the axis line, and some costume changes but hey what can you do. I  picked some creepy clown music and I was going to change the lighting but I ran out of time.
     I have expanded my knowledge with the do's and do not's of filming and it was so much fun to be apart of the entertainment strand for first quarter.  My favorite project to work on was probably the A to B squence just because I though my partner was easier to work with and it was fun, plus we both had pretty good ideas, overall though the experiance has been great so far.

Au revoir my friends, until next time,
Sophie the First
